World's best parents

Yep, that's us! Nothing but the finest toys for our girls. The best-quality boxes and plastic bags we can find.

And we hardly ever put them in that cage in the background for more than 8 or 9 hours per day. We rarely even make them sleep in their boxes, either.

And you might note the 2 of the total of 7 Tigers that we own are always within reach. Or screaming erupts.

The girls hardly have any assigned chores at all yet. We're giving them a break until they turn three. Then they have to start bringing buckets of water from the well and all that, but for now they just unload the dishwasher. Uh, literally.

(re the scenery) If I had a tri blog, I'd post a counterpoint of pix of my next bike ride (actually tomorrow will be my first ever with real bike/clipless), you'd see the hot dog guy, taxis, the manhole covers, the chuckholes, the double parked backing up cars.....
